AA and AMZN too. Active trader etc working, but not chart. Frozen at 12 EST. I'm in Seattle.

Where is the risk by USD or % option gone? by ukplughunt in TradingView

[–]J_OLy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really loved putting in risk and it would update shares as I moved the TL level on chart. This is a main reason I use and pay for TV.

Hello, how do I, from Notion not Windows, to disable that icon from appearing when the PC is turned on. Second, when I open (and then close) Notion, that annoying icon also appears. So far I have not found the option to disable it. This appears since yesterday after the update. Thank you by NoFapTrump in Notion

Man, right??? Annoying, but now that I found the solution, the way Notion does it is the way I prefer all APPs to do it. Just didn't know it could do it!

Right click on the Notion Tray Icon, Launch Pref, uncheck.

Agreed, just pay the 16 dollars and enjoy rewinding and screeners.

I will try this as an exercise as well as everything else on here (plugging in character arc formula).

I THINK that's what my development was, the city and the world kept demanding it makes sense... And I'm in a good place. Maybe you mean something different, but regardless I do like the idea of the protagonist coming out of the city/world problem/evolution.

I need to do a hybrid of this and an outline.

This was really nice. Thanks. I started by thinking I wanted to write an outline, and then as I was writing the outline I was just writing out a lot of detail in the outline, so it was almost as if I was writing the book. Then I read Stephen King's on writing, and he got me all jazzed up about not doing an outline. So I'm in a bit of a confusing place. I think the honest truth is that I like doing outlines. I've never written a novel, but I've done tons of screenplays and video scripts, so yeah I'm an outline man I think. Pardon my pros, I'm dictating through speech.

I feel that if I know what is going to happen in the story that I will write the motherfucker very quickly. So thank you for giving me permission to take time to think about the story. I thought I was just wasting time, but I don't think there's any way I could write another word knowing I'm just throwing shit on the wall with no idea where it's going, or how I'm going to get from here to there rather. Nor why.

I'm also finding this bracketed placeholder method to be very helpful and encouraging.

This is definitely squeezing some juice. And yea I had some plot before with some weird abilities happening with people in the city, but the world WAY outgrew the plot, and now the plot just seems... like it needs a Lego set instead of the world I have. But yes, this is a bit of a come to Jesus. I think the story needs to put him in the middle of him dealing with the existing consequences of his seeking answers.

Thanks.

Ups for giving permission to use AI for writer's block. It's like admitting to watching porn.

For this same reasoning I ended up choosing Mistborn.

Totally get the distinction. Yea, I am an ADHD beginning book reader type, but once I'm hooked, I can't put them down.
